The bar is fine, I just don't like forced scenes. I understand guys like lesbians, but it's just like a guy playing a male hero game and having a forced gay scene.
Except that scene wasn't forced. Both Anna and Emily willingly took part in it. Anna does it, to get Patrick off her back permanently, and Emily does it to help out her friend. How are they getting forced? Both of them also end up having a great time as well.

It's telling me to go to Timothy's door but then it says he's not there and I can't forward time. Anyone get to this point and figure it out?

Eh, I think I've played to about halfway through (the ren'py remake of) chapter one, and so far it seems to be your run of the mill humiliation/blackmail/sluttification story, where the plot hinges on the MC suddenly somehow magically being on the hook for 40 grand embezzled by her shitty friend for no reason. While you can reject individual scenes/story beats, her overall character trajectory seems pretty much set in stone.

If there are more alternative paths opening up in chapter two that sounds like a good thing, but I don't think I have the patience to sit through the rest of the first chapter to get to it right now. Maybe I'll make another pass at it later.
You can play this game however you want. But the whole point of the game, is to play it the way you obviously don't want to. Essentially Anna is a corruption/blackmail game on a grand scale. If you don't like that kind of content, then the question you should be asking, is why am I bothering? Because you're always going to be disappointed.

After many years as patron, I must confess that I'm losing interest in the game. I don't feel that "new update's excitement" anymore, now I'm just like "oh, it's out". Idk, renders are beautiful and Deep + Awake are a great team, but there's something off with the last updates: same characters and a slow progression with the new ones, ... and the animations, too mechanic, fast and with unnatural movements; they're getting worse. I think that in ch1 they were overall better.

Yup, that's why I asked in the first place. No shade on this particular kink for those that enjoy it.

I assumed they meant forced *on the player* rather than *on the character*, but I didn't get that far in the story.

The scene is forced for me as a player. Since I have no choice, it is forced. I am not at all interested in whether the characters from the game liked it. It was gross to me.

It's not really forced on the player, because you're making a conscious choice to play this game. It doesn't exactly hide what it's about. So if you carry on playing it, then that's your choice. You're not being forced to do anything.

There is no obligation on the part of the Dev, to make this game cater for all tastes. It's a niche game, and if the niches are not what you enjoy, then there's a very obvious solution

You're not forced, because you can choose not to play it. If you don't like most of the content, then why play it at all?

I know it may not be to everyone's taste, but you don't have to force yourself to play this game.

I'm guessing you like some of the content though, and feel there should be an opt out for the content that you don't like. What you need to realise, is that you don't represent the Dev's target audience. He makes this game primarily to please his patrons, the people who do like that kind of content, and pay his wages. Unfortunately, as I explained to Gregers, you're always going to be disappointed by some of the content

Hey all, I'm stuck after the sex scene with John. She goes to sleep has the nightmare where you hear the gun shot and then she wakes up. When it kicks me to the room and I click on the door it says I need to dress up, I click on the closet, and it tells me to go to sleep. I click the bed and it kicks me back to the very first of Chapter two where the cop searches her and when she turns around its Andrew. It's really weird and I'm not sure what's going on. Thanks

I think the Bar scene was the best one ever. And the Porn Shoot scene was awesome as well. I accept some recent scenes have not been good. The one with Alfred wasn't so good, once Rebecca went home. I thought it was a bit tired to be honest, like they were running out of ideas about what do between him and Anna. But that's basically cos Deep gave far too much prominence to Alfred in Chapter 1, because Patrons kept asking for content with him. Beware all those who keep begging for more and more content with their favourite characters, you might end up regretting it.

Having said that, the scene with Alfred in the Park was pretty good. I think more adventurous content with Alfred, is the way to go in future with him. The best scenes with Alfred, have always been when he was a bit outside of his comfort zone.

The problem with Alfred, is that he's almost certainly going to be one of the people, we'll be able to choose for Anna to end up with. So you can't not give him a lot of content. And that's going to be the case with certain other characters as well. So keeping them interesting is going to be a big issue going forward. And there are almost certainly going to be scenes that don't match up to the high standards set during Chapter 1, when all these characters were still relatively new.

VN version just throws me to the main menu after the police investigation at the beggining for no reason, Sandbox version, in my save, won't let me go into the office to do what i have to do, it just replays the same cutscene over and over again when i click on the office, and when i got desperate and restarted a new save, the game won't let me enter the closet to change clothes, at the office, saying "I've already been there" but when i want to get into the offices area, it says "you need to change clothes"

This game, honestly, every time i download a new update and give it a chance, always something doesn't work.

Sure buddy you mean here

Can anyone fix it? I have to go to the office when I go, I have the same scene over and over again, i.e. when the new boss shows Anna the basement

Wow I can’t believe how popular Alfred is with his patreons, I guess most of them are closer to his age group. I mean I’m in the age group of John (who I hate by the way) that fuckin free loader, but relate more to big Timothy who I want Anna to end up with
